I watched a movie just the other day that essentially was making fun of that line as if its a quote dumbasses say. lol "A Shepard must tend to his flock" The movie portrayed that character as a total jackass the entire time. Same character was also the one who was pro 2a . Damn now that I'm thinking they also portrayed him as the racist ignorant moron type. Its worth being aware our movies are constantly being jammed with shit that can falsely program the viewer. The movie was called Krampus . lmao.

Hey - Don't know if the movie has started yet, but I thought I would throw something interesting in. The rotten British Col in the movie, "William Tavington", is fictional. However, they based his character on real-life British Col, Banastre Tarleton. Tarleton was known as "Bloody Ban" and "The Butcher of the Carolinas". He was indeed a real bad-a. But unlike the fictional Tavington, Tarleton survived the war. In Feb 1781 Tarleton and Lord Cornwallis fought a small militia group on my grandparents property in Mt. Mourne, NC. A large boulder with a plaque in the yard marks the area.

@tvc184 2 года назад

I agree. Like in a lot of historical based movies or novels, the characters are often based on real people or the melding of different people. It certainly appears that Tavington was based on Tarleton.

Nice bit of history. Was that the Battle of Torrence's Tavern? Also for anyone who doesn't know, Mt Mourne, NC is just outside of Mooresville NC, which is about a 20 minute drive North of Charlotte. Another battle of the American Revolutionary War was fought at nearby Cowan's Ford. These are very historic grounds we walk upon daily and should remember why we are still here today.

@ironman0917 2 года назад

Mel Gibson's character is very loosely based on a man very well known here in South Carolina. His name was Francis Marion. The "Swamp Fox". His guerrilla tactics tied up and harassed the British Army for a couple of years here in SC. The Colonel Tavington in the movie is loosely based on Colonel Banastre Tarleton, a Dragoon, under the command of Lord Cornwallis. Tarlton is well know as being very ruthless and cold blooded. The final battle scene in the movie is based on an actual battle. The Battle of Cowpens, near the small town of Chesnee, South Carolina, which was a victory for the Americans, and the turning point in the Revolutionary War. Francis Marion was not at this battle, but Tarlton was. Also, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel of the 2nd World War, studied the tactics of Francis Marion the "Swamp Fox" and applied some of them in WW II and hence was to be known as the "Desert Fox". Playing off of Marion's "Swamp Fox" name.

@rascalmatt6713 2 года назад

The real Benjamin "Plumb" Martin is famous for writing the longest, most complete memoirs of any enlisted man during the Revolutionary War. He first enlisted in the militia at the age of 15. He was raised by his Dutch grandparents, who didn't want him to join up. His memoirs in book form are called "A Narrative of a Revolutionary Soldier" or something like that. It's a small book of about 200 pages roughly. I can't recommend reading it enough. For me as a vet myself, i can totally relate to everything he goes through. I think every American should read it. Especially men.

The "over mountain men" were a thorn in the side of Cornwallis due to their "Indian" fighting methods and hit and run battles in the south but they became famous after the British commander (Ferguson I think) printed up a threat to attack their families and settlement if they didn't surrender. So they got their friends and neighbors together, quickly marched east over the Appalachians to his encampment atop Kings Mountain and wiped him out.

The final battle of this movie is loosely based on The Battle of Cowpens, one of the most complete American victories of the American Revolution. General Cornwallis wasn’t there, however, the men there were under the command of Banistre “the butcher” Tarleton. Unlike the villain in the film, after his force was annihilated, he returned to Great Britain and became a pro-slavery advocate in the British Parliament. Truly, he was a real life villain, as his men committed unspeakable acts of terror as a means of frightening the American colonists out of continuing the fight.

Great review, I love watching your expressions, hiding from the evil of men and smiling for the good of men. Theodore Roosevelt once said, "Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by a President." We the people matter, not the tyrants trying to control you. Our ancestors fought hard and took a lot of losses to free us from the King and England. It was the reason so many risked their lives coming here in the first place, to escape the elite vs peasant rule of the England where the people had no rights, no freedom of religion, taxed to death and starvation. We are all lucky to be here today, so many in the world are still suffering through these horrors.

Dunno if that happened for real in India but you can bet it did with good odds. One thing to admire is rule of law. To hold them to that like showing them a mirror and it working.

I live in the small tourist town of Cody, Wyoming, very near Yellowstone National Park. On the 4th of July, three years ago, myself and my little brother were sitting, parked in my truck, ready to watch our local fireworks show. A rented van pulled in next to us, and the young family bustled about, setting up chairs between their van and my truck. I could easily tell they were from England by their accent. Being a friendly chap, I struck up a conversation with a few of them. A few minutes later, a local car pulled up on the other side of them, filled with young guys. They heard our conversation and accents, then commenced taunting the English family, ridiculing them for participating in a celebration about our independence from England. The family seemed shocked, embarrassed, and saddened, and said that maybe they should leave. I told them they were welcome to stay, and to ignore the selfish idiots. The young guys lost interest in their troublemaking and left. During our conversation, I found out they were from Shropshire, not far from where my Barker ancestors came from almost 300 years ago! I'm glad you could enjoy this movie, obviously with the understanding that none of us has any control over what our ancestors did many years ago.

Hey, glad to see this one meant something to you. Every 4th of July, I stand outside at night and listen to the fireworks in the community around me, close and far, and recall those were the sounds of the war of the American Revolution. The cracks, pops, booms, flashes of light, all reminiscent of what Americans heard in their cities, towns, villages, and fields back then, near their homes, with rifle, pistol, and cannon. We use fireworks not only as a celebration, but a reminder that it took battle to win freedom, in addition to words and treasure. Peace.

Two bayonets to kill the enemy with, he picked up that second one for Gabriel. Another classic Mel Gibson movie. When I first saw the film it was also out of curiosity, but when I saw it was about the American Revolutionary War (well, somewhat) it made me more excited to watch it bc I love American history. Again, your reaction to the film was wonderful, you were amazing. Gibson didn't direct this one, but as a director,he, like Steven Spielberg, keeps it real bc he loves history and he also does a lot of deep research before making them. Interestingly, when they showed him introduce all his children in the beginning of the movie I remembered that Gibson himself, has seven children! So, there was a connection there.

@sarahgould5435 Год назад

BTW, the battle formation of standing in file on open ground, shooting at a charging foe, continued until after WW1. The British Square (standing or kneeling in a Square, facing outward, with the wounded and fallen being pulled to the center while the Square tightened to protect them, preventing enemies from surprising you from any side) was considered unbreakable until well into the 1800s. Part of the reason WW1 was so deadly was a combination of old-fashioned strategy (barely upgraded to offer the cover of trenches) against advanced weaponry, the bird flu epidemic, and the disease that ran rampant in the trenches, even as they offered cover from bullets.

@shawnkroll3950 2 года назад

Asia and BJ. Thank you so much for watching this. As usual I loved your reactions. This movie may not be historically accurate, but it does show how brutal the war was. Yes, this was fought in our backyards. Yes, British troops could enter and do what they want with colonial homes. This is why in our Constitution that soldiers cannot demand access to people's homes. With everything going on in today people forget our forefathers and mothers had to go through this to have the freedoms we now cherish. Look at our military now compared to then. It is truly amazing to go from where were then to being arguably the most power military in the world. I am proud to have served. For we sometimes forget it is the sacrifices of those served before that grant us the freedoms we now have. I am happy that our people don't have to experience this today where other countries this is truly daily life. It is the Soldier, not the minister Who has given us freedom of religion. It is the Soldier, not the reporter Who has given us freedom of the press. It is the Soldier, not the poet Who has given us freedom of speech. It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer Who has given us freedom to protest. It is the Soldier, not the lawyer Who has given us the right to a fair trial. It is the Soldier, not the politician Who has given us the right to vote. It is the Soldier who salutes the flag, Who serves beneath the flag, And whose coffin is draped by the flag, Who allows the protester to burn the flag.

I took a tour of a large number of memorials for our military, 9/11, and the holocaust . So many acts of bravery and sacrifice have been made for us to enjoy the freedoms we have today. And are still being made for us today. All I can say is I recommend every young person and old take a tour of the same. It definately changed me as a person and gave me a great level of respect for all the people who sacrificed for my family.

This character is based on two different historical men from the Revolutionary War. One was my ancestor whose family was killed and home burned by the British, and the other one was Francis Marion some of my ancestors fought with, (Marion's Men). While it is not particularly historically accurate, it does capture the mindset, and the heritage of the Revolutionary War in the Carolinas....a place where redcoats came to die. Those taverns he is shown recruiting from were real, many of Marion's men were smugglers, and pirates, and frontiersmen. As the saying goes they came to the wrong neighborhood.

Johnson was the first governor of the state of Maryland, was a Justice in the first Supreme Court, and turned down nominations for president and secretary of state.

Good eye BJ for seeing the symbolism of Ben walking through the fire that damages his home. That scene could represent Ben's focus and rage which the Red Coats make him release and show his boys. The reason why Ben and his two boys manage to catch up to the Red Coats is because of their vast knowledge of the land that surrounds their home even hundreds of miles away. Aunt Charlotte likes Benjamin for quite some time. She shows it earlier in the movie, although very subtlety. Gabriel being killed never fails to give me the same emotions and hit hard, no matter how many times I've seen this movie wholly. Same for Thomas's death.

@Tomcat088 Год назад

Keep in mind that Mel Gibson is a war hero from the French and Indian war. Mel Gibson’s character has already seen heavy combat and that is part of the reason that he is respected and has literal war trophies like a tomahawk (not just a hatchet). From how well he understood their tactics, use of the weapon (throwing it), he may have fought alongside some of them or respected his enemy and learned from them. It’s because is a war hero that others think he would be eager to fight a war, and why his sons feel like they have something to prove or some shoes to fill. So it’s important to remember that during this time, there were literally rules of war. You couldn’t and weren’t supposed to do certain things, like kill wounded soldiers, not use the excuse of spy to hang a messenger, etc. He was asking them to abide by the rules of war, but the British commander didn’t care and would use any means necessary. It was also against the rules of war for Europeans to involve officers and not offer them surrender or quarter. Mel asks his boys to start with the officers because he’s playing by the same rules that they’re now playing with, none. They didn’t recognize him because in a time of war a man is not who he was, and he never wanted them to experience that, much less see it. I don’t have children, but if I would have lost that many (even one) sons and was a warrior; I’d be all in and ready to see it through. This is the story of how we won our freedom. It’s important that we remember “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” We must remain vigilant and stewards of our liberty and the Constitution. God bless our veterans. I loved this reaction.

So people had to pair up for survival and frequently it might be with an in law.

In the heat of the moment, he still knew the tide of the battle was more urgent than his revenge and he had to turn back to accomplish both. He put both country and family first.
